Yun Zishu seemed unwilling to stay any longer and quickly stood up to leave: "The Queen's face is not very good, so I won't disturb her and will leave first."
After saying that, he turned around to leave, but a gentle voice suddenly sounded from behind him: "Princess, please stay."
As if she was not surprised at all, Yun Zishu paused slightly and turned her head to look over.
A dainty and graceful woman in a pink dress came out from behind the screen. She had a delicate face, a graceful figure, and a dignified and delicate demeanor.
Well, the appearance is somewhat similar to Situ Xue, and the demeanor seems to be a little calmer than Situ Xue.
"My daughter Situ Wan, please see the Crown Princess."
Yun Zishu's eyes fell on her face and she looked at her briefly: "Miss Situ, there is no need to be polite."
Situ Wan came over and smiled happily at Yun Zishu: "I have something to say to the Crown Princess. Can I invite the Crown Princess to go for a walk in the garden?"
The corners of Yun Zishu's mouth raised slightly, her eyes revealed some depth, and she nodded slowly: "Okay."
"Auntie." Situ Wan saluted the queen, "Wan'er and the Crown Princess went out for a walk."
The queen waved her hand: "Go."
She didn't want to listen to their conversation. She expected that Yun Zishu didn't have anything nice to say. She was worried that she would lose her grace in a rage and lose the majesty of the queen.
Wan'er is the legitimate daughter carefully cultivated by the Situ family. With her around, Yun Zishu may not necessarily have the upper hand.
Yun Zishu and Situ Wan walked out, one behind the other, and walked slowly and slowly towards the small garden of Fengyi Palace.
Leng Yue and Leng Shuang followed behind them silently, and Situ Wan was also followed by two maids. The palace was very quiet, and the palace residents who passed by hurriedly saluted and left quickly, and almost no one spoke.
"Your Highness the Crown Princess is very beautiful." Walking into the garden, Situ Wan looked at the spring scenery in the garden and spoke first, "Don't blame Your Highness the Crown Princess for having a soft spot for you."
Yun Zishu smiled: "I also think the prince has a soft spot for me."
Situ Wan lowered her eyebrows, with a hint of sadness between her eyebrows: "My daughter is already seventeen years old this year, and her best youth has passed. My daughter has been waiting for the prince all these years, but I didn't expect that it would be so difficult to wait for him to come back.
,but……"
But what?
Yun Zishu stretched out her hand to brush the flower branches and smiled faintly: "You have never seen the prince, why are you waiting for him?"
"My daughter's family's marriage has never been decided by me." Situ Wan smiled bitterly, her weak expression always aroused people's pity, "How can I say 'no' to the marriage that the emperor and the queen's aunt have decided on?"
"Girls should be braver." Yun Zishu said calmly, "I also got married in the Yong Dynasty. My father decided to marry me to the son of a military commander, but that military commander's son was not kind to me.
His mother bullied me with him, and I divorced my husband in anger, becoming the laughing stock of the entire imperial city. Everyone in the court impeached me, my father was dissatisfied, my husband's family was dissatisfied, and all the civil and military officials in the court criticized me, but so what?
?What I have to do, I have to do even if I risk my life."
Situ Wan was silent, closing his eyes to hide the color in his eyes, and after a while he said: "I envy the Crown Princess for her courage, but how many women in this world have the same courage as the Crown Princess?"
Yun Zishu was noncommittal: "You have never met the prince, and you are just waiting for him to be the crown princess. Now that the crown princess's position has been taken by me, Miss Situ can choose another good son-in-law."
Situ Wan raised his eyes slightly and frowned: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is the future king of a country. Does the Crown Princess really not allow other women to enter his backyard?"
Yun Zishu pondered for a moment, then sighed quietly: "To be honest, I have actually discussed this matter with the prince, but the prince disagrees."
Situ Wan was startled: "The prince does not agree?"
"Yes." Yun Zishu nodded, "The four princesses who came from Dayong to be married together were originally supposed to be the prince's concubines, but the prince would rather leave the backyard vacant than let other women stay in the prince's mansion. I'll give it a try.
There is nothing we can do.”
After a pause, "The prince even told me that if I insisted on letting him take a concubine, he would go on a hunger strike to show me. I felt sorry for him and it was too late. How could I watch him go on a hunger strike?"
Leng Yue and Leng Shuang followed quietly. One looked up at the white clouds in the sky, and the other looked down at the ants on the ground. They were deeply impressed by the Crown Princess' ability to tell lies with her eyes open.
Situ Wan closed her eyes and remained silent. She didn't know what she was thinking. Maybe she had already prepared a whole set of arguments to persuade Yun Zishu. However, when Yun Zishu brought up the reason of "the prince's hunger strike", all her
Rhetoric seems to be of no use.
The atmosphere was stagnant for a while, and then Situ Wan spoke softly: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will marry a concubine sooner or later. Even if he doesn't marry now, he will fill the harem after he ascends the throne."
Yun Zishu hummed: "Indeed."
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has just come back and is still fledgling. In fact, we should obtain the support of the courtiers and families through marriage." Situ Wan moved out of Jiangshan Sheji, trying to make Yun Zishu focus on the overall situation. "Before His Royal Highness the Crown Prince came back, how many people in the court were there?"
The princes and princes are vying for power and forming cliques, which have already formed the power of party members. I am afraid that His Highness the Crown Prince will not be their opponent. Has the Crown Princess ever considered this?"
Yun Zishu smiled: "The prince is very powerful, he can completely handle this situation."
Situ Wan bit her lip: "The struggle for interests is always unscrupulous. Even though the prince has a noble status, he can't defeat the four palms with two fists, especially in the court hall where the waves are treacherous and the swords, lights and shadows are hard to guard against——"
"Miss Situ, don't worry." Yun Zishu said in a gentle tone, "The prince has a way to deal with it."
Situ Wan looked slightly stiff.
"You should have heard about what happened the night I got married to him. Someone used a brazier to poison someone. Wasn't it quickly discovered?" The corners of Yun Zishu's lips raised slightly, and her smile looked very harmless. "
King Xuan was demoted to a prince, and the Yue Crown Prince was not only punished with a stick, but also deprived of his position as Crown Prince. I think at least the emperor supports the Crown Prince. As long as His Royal Highness is given a little more time, he can completely control the overall situation.
.”
Situ Wan's expression was frozen, and he could hardly maintain his tenderness.
Leng Yue sighed in her heart.
This Miss Situ looks like she is not very smart. She was hiding behind the screen in Fengyi Palace and eavesdropped on His Highness talking to the Queen. Could it be that she still can't judge His Highness's temperament? At this moment, she thought it was just a matter of pretending to be weak and pitiful here.
Can His Highness be softened?
Is it relevant to the overall situation?
If you want to enter the Prince's Mansion, just say it straight, what are you talking about, the treacherous clouds, the flashes of swords, and the shadows of swords? The prince has been in command from the Shadow Guard all the way, and the things he has been most exposed to are royal intelligence and assassinations, and the disputes between various factions in the court. What kind of swords, lights, swords, and shadows have not been seen? What storms and waves have not been seen?
experienced?
Do you need her to be alarmist here?
It's true that people who have never seen the world think that everyone is as inexperienced as her.
